Theoretical physicist known for his work on quantum gravity. He has worked at the Università la Sapienza of Rome, Imperial College London, the University of Pittsburgh and Yale University in the United States. He is a Full Professor at the Aix-Marseille Université in the Centre de Physique, Senior Member of the Institut Universitaire de France, the International Academy of Philosophy of Science, and Honorary Professor at Beijing Normal University. He has dedicated particular attention to the philosophy and history of ancient science and has recently completed a book on the Greek philosopher Anaximander “What is Science?” Mondadori 2011. He collaborates with the Sole 24 Ore and La Repubblica.

At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

China’s first AI hospital, developed by Tsinghua University, features robot doctors capable of treating 3,000 patients daily, vastly outpacing human capacity.

These AI doctors, trained in a simulated environment, can diagnose and treat 10,000 patients in days, a task humans would need two years to…

Many people have heard of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes because of their association with breast cancer. But scientists have now suggested that many of the genetic variants we are born with, in a variety of different genes, can make a powerful prediction about what type of breast cancer an individual could develop, and what the outcome could be. This study has indicated that random genetic variants that are acquired over a lifetimes are far less important to breast cancer risk compared to those a person is born with; the findings have been published in Science.

“Apart from a few highly penetrant genes that confer significant cancer risk, the role of heredity factors remains poorly understood, and most malignancies are assumed to result from random errors during cell division or bad luck,” said senior study author Christina Curtis, PhD, a Professor at Stanford University. While that would make it seem like random events cause the growth of tumors, this is not what’s been observed. Instead, tumor development is influence by immunity and genetics, said Curtis. “This new result unearths a new class of biomarkers to forecast tumor progression and an entirely new way of understanding breast cancer origins.”
